Black Political Caucus endorses Neal


The Black Political Caucus of Charlotte-Mecklenburg endorsed Jim Neal.

The group announced its endorsement this afternoon of the Chapel Hill investment banker, who is running for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate.

"We thought Jim is the ideal candidate to defeat Elizabeth Dole, and that is why we are behind his candidacy," said chairman Dwayne Collins in a statement. "He was the best candidate on the issues that affect all citizens, but especially members of the African American community."

The group has also endorsed Democrats Janet Cowell for treasurer and Hampton Dellinger for lieutenant governor.
